President Obama will be back in the neighborhood for dinner tonight, after stopping in Chinatown to pick up take-out dim sum for lunch. He’s supping and posing with a few deep-pocketed supporters paying $38,500 each at the contemporary Gold Coast home of Oracle heiress Nicola Miner and author Robert Mailer Anderson. Entertainment will be provided by the Rev. Al Green, with dinner prepared by Quince’s Michael Tusk. Here’s the menu:
Tortelloni filled with Barinaga Ranch baserri cheese and wild nettle
Poularde in diverse preparations: Roast breast filled with black salsify, savory cabbage; leg fricassee with chanterelle mushroom
Sweet dumpling squash puree and marble potato
Chocolate Cemeux
Straus Family Creamery milk jam and chocolate caramel dentelle
A public rally and fund-raiser follows at Masonic Auditorium on Nob Hill.
